+\begin{problem*}{24.31}
+A solid sphere of radius $40.0\U{cm}$ has a total positive charge of
+$26.0\U{$\mu$C}$ uniformly distributed throughout its volume.
+Calculate the magnitude of the electric field \Part{a}
+$0\U{cm}$, \Part{b} $10.0\U{cm}$, \Part{c} $40.0\U{cm}$, and \Part{d}
+$60.0\U{cm}$ from the center of the sphere.
+\end{problem*}
+
+\begin{solution}
+\Part{a}
+The electric field at $0\U{cm}$ must be zero by symmetry.  Because the
+situation is symmetric, there is no preferred direction for the
+electric field.
+
+\Part{b}
+The charge density inside the sphere is
+\begin{equation}
+  \rho = \frac{Q}{V(R)} = \frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3} \;.
+\end{equation}
+
+Inside the sphere, the enclosed charge is
+\begin{equation}
+  q_\text{in} = \rho V(r) = \frac{Qr^3}{R^3} \l.
+\end{equation}
+
+By Gauss's law, the electric flux is
+\begin{equation}
+  \Phi_E = \frac{q_\text{in}}{\epsilon_0} = \frac{Qr^3}{\epsilon_0 R^3} \;,
+\end{equation}
+which is uniformly distributed over the surface of the gaussian
+sphere, so
+\begin{equation}
+  E = \frac{\Phi_E}{A}
+    = \frac{\frac{Qr^3}{\epsilon_0 R^3}}{4\pi r^2}
+    = \frac{Qr}{4\pi\epsilon_0 R^3} \;.
+    = \frac{kQr}{R^3} \;.
+\end{equation}
+The electric field at $r=10.0\U{cm}$ is therefore
+\begin{equation}
+  E(r=10.0\U{cm}) = \ans{365\U{kN/C}}
+\end{equation}
+
+\Part{c}
+On the surface of the sphere, the entire charge is enclosed, so
+\begin{equation}
+  E = \frac{kQ}{r^2} \;.
+\end{equation}
+For this particular $r$,
+\begin{equation}
+  E(r=40.0\U{cm}) = \ans{1.46\U{MN/C}} \;.
+\end{equation}
+
+\Part{d}
+Further outside the surface, we still enclose the same total charge, so
+\begin{equation}
+  E(r=60.0\U{cm}) = \ans{649\U{kN/C}} \;.
+\end{equation}
+
+All of these electric fields are directed radially outward.

+Consider a long, cylindrical charge distribution of radius $R$ with a

+\end{problem*}
+
+\begin{solution}
+The charge enclosed by a concentric gaussian cylinder of length $L$ is
+\begin{equation}

+\end{equation}
+because $r<R$.

+\begin{solution}
+\Part{a}
+Conserving momentum
+\begin{align}
+  p_i = 0 &= p_f = m_1 v_1 - m_2 v_2 \\
+  m_2 v_2 &= m_1 v_1 \\
+  v_2 &= \frac{m_1}{m_2} v_1 \;.
+\end{align}
+
+The electric potential energy is initially
+\begin{equation}
+  U_i = qV_i = k_e \frac{q_1q_2}{r_{12,i}} \;,
+\end{equation}
+and the final electric potential energy is
+\begin{equation}

+Conserving energy
+\begin{align}
+  E_i = U_i &= E_f = U_f + K_{f,1} + K_{f,2} \\
+  K_{f,1} + K_{f,2} &= U_i - U_f \\
+  \frac{1}{2}m_1 v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_2 v_2^2
+    &= k_e \frac{q_1q_2}{r_{12,i}} - k_e \frac{q_1q_2}{R_1+R_2} \\
+  \frac{1}{2}\p({m_1 v_1^2 + m_2 \p({\frac{m_1}{m_2}v_1})^2})
+    &= k_e q_1 q_2 \p({\frac{1}{r_{12,i}} - \frac{1}{R_1+R_2}}) \\
+  \p({m_1 + \frac{m_1^2}{m_2}}) v_1^2
+    &= 2 k_e q_1 q_2 \p({\frac{1}{r_{12,i}} - \frac{1}{R_1+R_2}}) \\
+  \frac{m_1m_2 + m_1^2}{m_2} v_1^2
+    &= 2 k_e q_1 q_2 \p({\frac{1}{r_{12,i}} - \frac{1}{R_1+R_2}}) \\
+  v_1^2 &= \frac{2 k_e q_1 q_2 m_2}{m_1m_2 + m_1^2}
+       \p({\frac{1}{r_{12,i}} - \frac{1}{R_1+R_2}}) \\

+      = \ans{1.55\U{m/s}}
+\end{align}
+
+\Part{b}
+The speeds for conductors would be greater, because as the spheres
+close the charge polarization will intensify, leading to a greater
+effective $\Delta r_{12}$ over a more sensitive portion of the $1/r$
+voltage curve.

+\begin{solution}
+\Part{a}
+Label the currents $I_1$, $I_2$, and $I_3$ from left to right with

+$I_3=\ans{0}$ (otherwise $Q$ would be changing, which would not be

+TwoTerminal I1 = current((0, 0), ang=0, name="$I_1$");
+pair P = I1.end + (dx, 0);

+\end{center}
+\begin{align}
+  0 &= I_1 + I_2 + I_3 = I_1 + I_2 \\
+  I_2 &= - I_1 \;.
+\end{align}
+
+Applying Kirchhoff's loop rule to the left-hand loop moving clockwise
+from the lower-left corner, we have
+\begin{center}
+\begin{asy}
+import Circ;
+
+real u = 2cm;
+
+wire((0, 0), (2u, u), rlsq);
+wire((0, 0), (2u, u), udsq);
+wire((u, 0), (u, u));
+dot((u, 0));
+dot((u, u));
+
+TwoTerminal I1 = current(name="$I_1$", draw=false);
+I1.centerto((0, 0), (0, u));
+I1.draw();
+TwoTerminal I2 = current(name="$I_2$", draw=false);
+I2.centerto((u, 0), (u, u));
+I2.draw();
+TwoTerminal I3 = current(name="$I_3$", draw=false);
+I3.centerto((2u, 0), (2u, u));
+I3.draw();
+
+pair[] points = {(0, 0), (0, u), (u, u), (u, 0)};
+kirchhoff_loop(points);
+\end{asy}
+\end{center}
+\begin{align}
+  0 &= V - I_1 R_1 + I_2 R_2 \\
+  V &= I_1 R_1 - I_2 R_2 = I_1 R_1 + I_1 R_2 = I_1 (R_1+R_2) \\
+  I_1 &= \frac{V}{R_1+R_2} = \ans{333\U{$\mu$A}} \\
+  I_2 &= -I_1 = \ans{-333\U{$\mu$A}} \;.
+\end{align}
+So we have $333\U{$\mu$A}$ of current flowing clockwise through the
+left loop, and no current in the right loop.
+
+\Part{b}
+Applying Kirchhoff's loop rule to the right-hand loop moving clockwise
+from the lower-right corner, we have
+\begin{center}
+\begin{asy}
+import Circ;
+
+real u = 2cm;
+
+wire((0, 0), (2u, u), rlsq);
+wire((0, 0), (2u, u), udsq);
+wire((u, 0), (u, u));
+dot((u, 0));
+dot((u, u));
+
+pair[] points = {(2u, 0), (u, 0), (u, u), (2u, u)};
+kirchhoff_loop(points);
+\end{asy}
+\end{center}
+\begin{align}
+  0 &= - I_2 R_2 - \frac{Q}{C} + I_3 R_3 \\
+  I_2 R_2 &= -\frac{Q}{C} \\
+  Q &= -C I_2 R_2 = -(10.0\U{$\mu$F})\cdot(-333\U{$\mu$A})\cdot(15.0\U{k\Ohm})
+    = \ans{50\U{$\mu$C}} \;.
+\end{align}
+You could jump to the final equation for $Q$ by using the capacitor
+equation $Q=CV$ and noting that the voltage drop over the capacitor
+must match the voltage drop $V=|I_2R_2|$ over $R_2$ (effectively doing
+Kirchhoff's loop rule in your head).
+
+The top capacitor plate will hold the positive charge, because when
+the switch was first closed, the capacitor was completely discharged.
+The current $I_1$ split and flowed down through both the middle and
+right wire.  As time went on, the charge $Q$ built up on the
+capacitor, and current through the right wire slowed, stopping at
+equilibrium with the capacitor fully charged.
+
+\Part{c}
+With the switch opened, $I_1=0$.  Resolving our earlier junction equation
+\begin{align}
+  0 &= I_1 + I_2 + I_3 = I_2 + I_3 \\
+  I_2 &= - I_3 \;,
+\end{align}
+so current will flow up through the right-hand wire ($I_3>0$) and down
+through the center wire ($I_2<0$) as the capacitor discharges.
+Repeating our Kirchhoff loop from \Part{b},
+\begin{align}
+  0 &= - I_2 R_2 - \frac{q}{C} + I_3 R_3 \\
+  \frac{q}{C} &= (R_2+R_3)I_3 = R'I_3 \;,
+\end{align}
+where $R'\equiv R_2+R_3$ is shorthand to allow cleaner formulas for
+the rest of the problem, and $q$ is the charge on the capacitor
+($q(t=0)=Q$).
+
+As the capacitor discharges, $\deriv{t}{q}<0$, so $I_3=-\deriv{t}{q}$.
+We can then solve for $q(t)$ by integrating with respect to time.
+\begin{align}
+  \frac{q}{C} &= -R'\deriv{t}{q} \\
+  \frac{-\dd t}{R'C} &= \frac{\dd q}{q} \\
+  \int_{t=0}^t \frac{-\dd t}{R'C} &= \int_{t=0}^t \frac{\dd q}{q} \\
+  \frac{-t}{R'C} &= \ln(q) - \ln(Q) = \ln\p({\frac{q}{Q}}) \;,
+\end{align}
+where $-\ln(Q)$ is a constant of integration which is determined by
+the conditions at $t=0$.  Raising $e$ to either side this equation, we
+have
+\begin{align}
+  e^{\frac{-t}{R'C}} &= e^{\ln\p({\frac{q}{Q}})} = \frac{q}{Q} \\
+  q &= Q e^{\frac{-t}{R'C}} \\
+  I_3 &= -\deriv{t}{q}
+    = -\p({\frac{-1}{R'C}}) Q e^{\frac{-t}{R'C}}
+    = \frac{V_0}{R'} e^{\frac{-t}{R'C}} \;,
+\end{align}
+where $V_0=Q/C$ is the initial voltage across the capacitor.  You can
+see that both the charge on the capacitor and the current through the
+loop will drop off exponentially with a time constant $R'C$ as the
+system discharges.
+
+Now we can put together our knowledge of the switch-closed and
+switch-open cases to write an equation for $I_2$.
+
+\begin{equation}
+  I_2 = \begin{cases}
+          \frac{-V}{R_1+R_2} = \ans{-333\U{$\mu$A}}
+            &  t<0 \\
+          -\frac{Q}{R'C} e^{\frac{-t}{R'C}}
+            = \frac{C I_2(t<0) R_2}{R'C} e^{\frac{-t}{R'C}}
+            = \frac{-V R_2}{(R_1+R_2)\cdot(R_2+R_3)} e^{\frac{-t}{R'C}}  
+            = \ans{-(278\U{$\mu$A})\cdot e^{\frac{-t}{180\U{ms}}}}
+            &  t>0
+        \end{cases}
+\end{equation}
+
+\Part{d}
+Plugging into our formula for $q(t)$
+\begin{align}
+  \frac{Q}{5} &= q(t) = Q e^{\frac{-t}{R'C}} \\
+  \frac{1}{5} &= e^{\frac{-t}{R'C}} \\
+  \ln\p({\frac{1}{5}}) &= \frac{-t}{R'C} \\
+  t &= -R'C\ln\p({\frac{1}{5}}) = R'C\ln(5) = \ans{290\U{ms}}
+\end{align}

+\Part{a}
+The magnetic force on the particle in the field-filled region is
+\begin{equation}

+\end{equation}
+The acceleration that force induces is
+\begin{align}
+  F_B &= ma \\
+  a &= \frac{F_B}{m} = \frac{qvB}{m} \;.

+This force (perpendicular to the direction of motion) turns the

+acceleration of circling objects to get a handle on the radius.
+\begin{align}

+  r &= \frac{v^2}{|a|} = \frac{v^2m}{|q|vB} = \frac{vm}{|q|B} \;.

+  \Delta t = \frac{\Delta t}{\Delta x} \cdot \Delta x
+    = \frac{\Delta x}{v} = \frac{\pi r}{v}

+Note that the velocity $v$ cancels out of the final $\Delta t$

+\begin{align}

+\begin{solution}
+\Part{a}
+We're interested in the magnetic field generated at the center of the
+ring.  There is no path for an Amperian loop that takes advantage of
+the problem's symmetry, so we'll use the Biot--Savart law directly.
+Integrating around a single ring of radius $r$, the magnetic field at
+the center is given by
+\begin{align}
+  \vect{B} &= \oint_S \dd\vect{B}
+    = \oint_S \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\cdot\frac{I \dd\vect{s} \times \rhat}{r^2}
+    = \frac{\mu_0 I}{4\pi r^2} \oint_S |\dd\vect{s}|\cdot|\rhat|\cdot\sin(\theta)
+    = \frac{\mu_0 I}{4\pi r^2} \oint_S |\dd\vect{s}|
+    = \frac{\mu_0 I}{4\pi r^2} \cdot 2\pi r
+    = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 r} \;,
+\end{align}
+where we took advantage of the following facts:
+\begin{itemize}
+  \item The current $I$ and distance $r$ from the wire to the point we
+    care about are the same for every segment $\dd\vect{s}$ in the
+    loop, so we can pull these constants outside the integral.
+ \item The cross product of two vectors can be written
+   $\vect{A}\times\vect{B}=|\vect{A}|\cdot|\vect{B}|\cdot\sin(\theta)$.
+ \item \rhat is a unit vector ($|\rhat|=1$).
+ \item \rhat always points centerward and $\dd\vect{s}$ is always
+   tangent to the ring, so $\theta=90\dg$ and $\sin(\theta)=1$.
+ \item $\oint_S |\dd\vect{s}|$ is just the total length of the path
+   $S$, which is the circumfernce of the ring ($2\pi r$).
+\end{itemize}
+Using the right hand rule, it is clear that a counterclockwise current
+will generate a magnetic field at the center of the ring which points
+out of the page.
+
+Now that we have a formula for the magnetic field at the center of the
+ring, we can calculate the magnetic field at the center of the two
+rings using superposition.  Letting \emph{out of the page} be the
+positive direction,
+\begin{equation}
+  B = \frac{\mu_0 (-I_1)}{2 r_1} + \frac{\mu_0 I_2}{2 r_2}
+    = -5.24\U{$\mu$T} \;, \label{eq:30.64.a}
+\end{equation}
+so the magnetic field has a magnitude of $\ans{5.24\U{$\mu$T}}$.
+
+\Part{b}
+Because we picked \emph{out of the page} as the positive direction,
+the $-$ sign in \cref{eq:30.64.a} means that the magnetic field points
+\ans{into the page}.
+
+\Part{c}
+If we allow $r_2$ to vary, we have no magnetic field when
+\begin{align}
+  0 &= B = \frac{\mu_0 (-I_1)}{2 r_1} + \frac{\mu_0 I_2}{2 r_2} \\
+  \frac{\mu_0 I_1}{2 r_1} &= \frac{\mu_0 I_2}{2 r_2} \\
+  \frac{I_1}{r_1} &= \frac{I_2}{r_2} \\
+  r_2 &= \frac{I_2}{I_1} r_1 = \ans{7.20\U{cm}} \;.
